Very quirky but sweet, Loren Horsley (who developed the story with Waititi) falls for a nerdish habitual liar (Jermain Clement) who has a difficult relationship with his family and a score to settle with former school bully. Complete with animated stop motion scenes.
Taika has directed three of New Zealand's top grossing films - Hunt for the Wilderpeople, Boy and What We Do in the Shadows. He's making Marvel films now, unfortunately.
Horsely's easy-going tenacity is most engaging. Good music too by The Phoenix Foundation.
